Made with Seedream 5.0 Pro (ByteDance)

Its prompt

A grey tabby cat sitting upright on a sunny windowsill, looking straight at the camera, a small potted plant tipped over on the floor below, soft morning light. Photoreal, soft natural light, no text, no logos, no brand marks.

Voice track

Made with Eleven v3 (ElevenLabs)

Voice: River, from the ElevenLabs library

Its script

I did not knock the plant over. The plant simply chose to leave.

Who and what is in it

The cat is generated, not someone's pet: VlogMe staff made the photo in Image Studio and the voice with a stock voice from the ElevenLabs library.

04First-hand

What we noticed making it

  • The voice line runs 4.48 seconds, so the clip does too. It is billed as 5 seconds: the length rounded up to the next whole second.
  • The still shows the cat upright and facing the camera, and the motion prompt asks for a deadpan delivery with subtle head movement and nothing more.
  • We wrote the line first and made the voice in Audio Studio before the video, because the clip takes its length from the voice.

05How to

Make one like it

  1. Use a photo of the animal facing the camera, its face clear and well lit.
  2. Write a short line and make the voice in Audio Studio, or upload your own recording.
  3. In Video Studio choose Talking avatar, then Hedra Avatar, and add the photo and the voice.
  4. Describe the delivery and generate. The clip is as long as the voice.

06Recreate this

Start from the same prompt and model

Open Video Studio with Hedra Avatar and this line ready to speak. Add a photo of your own animal; a new voice track is quoted before it is made.

This length costs 25 credits ($0.38) today, quoted again before you confirm.
